  • Senate Judicial Blockage Continues, Likely to Expand

    Democrats Block Pryor From Court Seat


    Senate Democrats on Thursday blocked Alabama Attorney General William Pryor from a U.S. Appeals Court seat for a second time as Republicans, meanwhile, moved California judge Janice Rogers Brown toward what is likely to be the same fate in the closely divided Senate.

    Pryor again failed to get the 60 votes needed from the 100-member chamber to break a filibuster of his nomination to the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Atlanta. His nomination was first filibustered by Democrats in July.

    You know, Steven, for a second when I read the title of your post I thought you were talking about a medical condition ;-)
